ACOM Health

ACOM Health is an ambulatory electronic health record and practice management platform developed by Advanced Computer Systems (ACS), a Wisconsin-based healthcare technology company operating since 1986. The system targets small to mid-sized independent physician practices and specialty clinics seeking an integrated solution that combines clinical documentation, practice management, and revenue cycle management in a single platform.

The system is designed specifically for the ambulatory care market, with particular strength in multi-specialty group practices ranging from 3 to 50 providers. ACOM Health distinguishes itself through its comprehensive, all-in-one approach that eliminates the need for multiple vendor relationships. The platform includes built-in scheduling, clinical charting, e-prescribing via Surescripts, laboratory integration with major reference labs, medical billing, claims management, and patient portal functionality without requiring third-party add-ons.

ACOM Health offers specialty-specific templates and workflows for over a dozen specialties including family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, cardiology, dermatology, orthopedics, gastroenterology, OB-GYN, urology, ENT, and ophthalmology. The system's clinical documentation engine emphasizes efficiency with customizable templates, voice recognition support, and streamlined charting workflows designed to reduce documentation time.

The platform maintains ONC 2015 Edition certification and supports MIPS/MACRA quality reporting requirements. Interoperability capabilities include connectivity to CommonWell Health Alliance and Carequality networks, enabling care coordination and information exchange with external providers and health systems. The system supports EPCS (Electronic Prescribing of Controlled Substances) and maintains Surescripts certification for pharmacy connectivity.

ACOM Health is deployed as a cloud-based solution, eliminating the need for on-premise server infrastructure and IT maintenance. The company provides implementation services, training, and ongoing technical support directly to clients. The revenue cycle management component includes integrated clearinghouse functionality, claims scrubbing, denial management, and patient billing capabilities.

The system's target market consists primarily of independent physician practices in the Midwest and throughout the United States that value vendor stability, comprehensive functionality, and integrated billing services. ACOM Health competes in the mature ambulatory EHR market against vendors like athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, and NextGen Healthcare, differentiating itself through its bundled approach and focus on providing complete practice management and billing services rather than clinical documentation alone.
